i got an email from my local teachers union.
they are paying protesters 15.00 per hour. they dont seem to care if you believe in their cause or not as long as you hold the sign they provide for you.

this is the true face of liberal states "getting shit done"
astroturf

i guess the end justifies the means.

i just have a problem with the dishonesty of liberal "activism"

sit at home and play with your (insert idiot stereotype here) and pay the homeless to get pissed,march, barage the local news, and make a stink.

lest we forget the most powerful liberal in the country is STRONGLY opposed to ANY form of legalization or decrim.

Hey, you did manage a bit of op topic in your political rant.:jump: Let's see, I think I heard on the news that private unions represent 8% of the workforce compared to 31% belonging to public unions. Were you around in the 50s? Unions were the reason we had a rising middle class. The top 1% has more than they ever had. What have you got against our earnings proportionally rising? Do you own a sweat shop?

Here's something for you to consider. It's accounting, not politics. Numbers are the same ol' [pesky] same ol' to Republicans and Libertarians alike.

Business organizes, dag. They pool their lobbying ability and SCOTUS lets em contribute unlimited sums, anonymous doners, hand shaking, revolving doors.................................

And you disagree with individual organization?

Did you not see all the bused-in tea partiers at the national rallies last year? That's a bit turfish, don't you think?

What makes a State left wing or right wing?
Can that change? Really? No shit?
So, no State has in it's charter that it is left or right winged? Wow. I would have thought differently what with all the telling us what state is what.

Will someone please show me where MJ is part of the left wing platform. Is it part of any state factions charter, or perhaps a national mention?

Could it be that some of you are so young that you really have a very limited perception of what the political climate of your State or local municipality really is, or has been?

I have learned LOTS from these so called left winged activists.
It's like the work Goodall did.

i never said they didn't act...
on the contrary i pointed out they do act!
they pay well for others to act in their stead.

Oh, I get it.:D With that logic, tea bagger protesters are just paid hos.

Fact: typing fact followed by a colon only makes your opinion more colonic

And being corrected makes you anal.

dag, have you had a chance to chew on the link I left you? Eat your taters, you'll be there a while. All that money supports efforts to persuade you that they're the good guys.

And the fact is that industrial hemp is about all he touches on within the pages of that site.

At the risk of picking one item out from your post , the fact since 1970 the U.S. Congress has labeled hemp along with its psychoactive couisin "MJ" as a “Schedule 1” drug (under the Controlled Substances Act)

Amazes me to this day they haven't differentiated between industrial hemp or MJ and at least revised this one absolutely unbased linking of the two. Still illegal for any farmer to raise hemp in the US ...yet more hemp exported to the US than anywhere else .

" One of the fastest growing biomasses on earth & one of the strongest fibres plus easiest
crops to grow. Oil that's super nitritious , is renewable & has 1000's of uses including fuel with
a huge potential market."


Well we all know the emperor wears no clothes....amazing they haven't changed this yet .

yup

tea baggers are no better than the other liberals they claim to be opposed to...
both they and their dem. counterparts are into the expansion of gov. power...
i disagree with hiring people to carry your sign s if they actually represent your position.
i never expressed an opinion on unions...
nor did i express collective bargaining.
just the practice of paying homeless to swell the numbers of a "movement"

how do you and things extrapolate
"I guess in an effort to belittle the vast, life-changing, life-saving accomplishments of liberal-based marijuana advocacy?"

or any other assumption you are making concerning my political leanings..

yup tea baggers are pure whores.
as are republicans
and democrats.
NONE OF THE ABOVE have cannabis liberty in mind.
if you think they do...put down the kool aid!
your partisan rhetoric is as bad as any tea bagger..

tow tow tow the line

their differences are but a dream.

just ask any republi**** or democrap about legalization and you receive the EXACT same answer.

so delude yourself into thinking one party or the other is on your side...

What makes a State left wing or right wing?

Drop the wing, that's the extremes on both sides. Are you extreme? :hotbounce

Your answer is election trends. It ain't static but it's predictable enough that folks get paid to predict election results. Then we've got historical data to make comparisons and adjustments.

You've got intestines. But you've got more than that. Find out who's representing your interests and how they stand on repeal. Then you'd have a leg to stand on.

So, no State has in it's charter that it is left or right winged? Wow. I would have thought differently what with all the telling us what state is what.
Yeah, you live in a red state hoodie. Until elections trend left, Kenghanistan will be conservative.

You've been arguing this for years but you never present anything to back your emotions. Your "number one activist" is nothing more than an advocate, so says in the web site.

I understand why you refuse to look at the fact that conservative mj activists are like Sarah Palin riding a T-Rex. Fantasy.

There's a line where even you stop defending the defenseless. But then you pick it back up and sling at others, knowing you've been foiled with the same tired schpiel.

How 'bout the conservative majority in MT attempting to end 6 years of mmj? That potato (no "E" Dan) is too hot to touch, let alone pretend it isn't happening.

The people you're arguing either include info to support their posts or it's common knowledge. Math, facts, history... much sounder argument than dreams from the abdominal cavity.

I'm not all blue. I'm an economic conservative. Since you're so intelligent and opinionated, I'd think you'd do a better job than saying:

"Come on, everybody. Follow hoodie, just don't ask what or why."

Will someone please show me where MJ is part of the left wing platform. Is it part of any state factions charter, or perhaps a national mention?
I get it. Your number one individual is now compared to state and national aspects. What about state and national conservative aspects? Gatemouth must be one bad-ass mother fucker. We'll all be smoking blunts on the square after the election.

Remember, he's your example of the right leading the charge.

Could it be that some of you are so young that you really have a very limited perception of what the political climate of your State or local municipality really is, or has been?
It's pretty easy in your neck of the woods. There are anomalies, such as your Democratic governor. That's pretty wild Ku, the nation trended right and you got a Democrat.:jump:

I have learned LOTS from these so called left winged activists.
It's like the work Goodall did.
We'd be happy for you to learn us all about conservative mmj activism. All we get is individual advocacy from you and the Stetson fedora.
 
What makes a State left wing or right wing?
Voting record.
Can that change? Really? No shit?
Yes. Irrelevant point. The states that have always been liberal in recent (read: relevant) history as coinciding with their MMJ movements (en masse) are the states that support MMJ, and the converse is similarly true. You know that.

So, no State has in it's charter that it is left or right winged? Wow. I would have thought differently what with all the telling us what state is what.

Will someone please show me where MJ is part of the left wing platform. Is it part of any state factions charter, or perhaps a national mention?
It's not. Not the claim made nor the point. Again.
Could it be that some of you are so young that you really have a very limited perception of what the political climate of your State or local municipality really is, or has been?
Nope. Now we've got you so pinned in circular rhetoric that you're trying to imply the obviously liberal movements are some secret quasi-conservative campaign (you know, what it "really is").

This is sad, and completely unnecessary. Repeat after me, baba: Recent history shows that while neither party is overtly pro-MJ, Democrats- like it or not- offer the best hope towards MMJ and legalization by a differential of roughly 99 to 1 on a scale of 100. Period. No addendum. No "well what if they are actually conservative in drag.." No. Stop it. These are the facts. They are not intellectually difficult to comprehend, nor are they difficult to verify.

Why is that resoundingly obvious fact so difficult for you to confess? Do you not see how ridiculous what you're doing is? Don't try to defend your belief; I'm requesting that you ask yourself that question honestly.

If marijuana legalization is low on your priority list, baba, and you feel strongly in agreement with conservatives on other, bigger issues, I can respect that. I really can. Most of us can.

But you're presenting an argument as though you have a mental disability (A perhaps rude thing to say, but there is no other way to phrase it at this point) when you attempt to deny an obvious, verifiable, 101 fact in this way.

Democratic-lead MMJ support as compared to Republican MMJ-support constitutes a verifiable set of facts. Do you understand?

Holy shit.

Texas will give in when you pry its guns out of its cold dead hands.

It's probably bad luck to bet for the "last to legalize" so I'll just walk away :D

Good for you Kentucky!

:friends:

Gotta agree with you their, Texas or N. & S. Dakota also are kinda tough for that kind of thing. Funny thing, one of the best growers I met up here in the mountains was from Kentucky and he showed me some picture of some flipping MONSTER tree's 13+ lbs PER!!!! And it was very good boo also, he had been growing in KT for like 10 years and was out here chillin when I met him and introduced him to one of my best friends who is a large grower here in the mountains, guy was cool as shyt too!

Edit: I just had to add (cuz I just remembered it lmao), he had this strong KT accent and country phrases that just cracked me up, and he was never offended when I laughed when he said stuff..of course it might have just been his excellent pot.

Maybe when they learn of the dag, they'll follow your bandwagon.

i disagree with hiring people to carry your sign s if they actually represent your position.
You ain't got a clue who gets paid and who doesn't. A micro revelation (or lie) from shock jocks is no bottom line. Especially when they clog your thoughts with unsubstantiated claims.

Besides, who's to say those carrying signs believe or disbelieve? I think this is more tales from the intestinal crypt. Getting compensated to protest is a way to get turnout. You think the Kochs didn't compensate tea partiers? Are protesters required to lose finances for the day(s) they protest?

If it's a cause I believe in, I wouldn't sherk compensation, especially when my boss doesn't pay me for the day(s) I miss work. If he did, you'd say he's part of the mess. I guess the only thing left is to wax public protests and assemblies lest dag disparage the day.

i never expressed an opinion on unions...
nor did i express collective bargaining.
Yeah, you said they're paying peeps for advocacy they don't believe. So what, business leaders doe= it. The fact you mention unions and nothing else shows you expressed. IMO, you'd be better represented by a union rep than your district rep in DC.

just the practice of paying homeless to swell the numbers of a "movement"
ROTMFFLMAO! Now their homeless. Have you heard of the housing bust? There's lots of former middle class peeps who no longer have a home. Sounds like a great cause for protest, especially when banks ferked em twice after their re-fi.

How many watts does that crystal-ball consume?

"I guess in an effort to belittle the vast, life-changing, life-saving accomplishments of liberal-based marijuana advocacy?"
Whom are you quoting? It's not enough to assume you'll direct your own traffic. Hell, you'll even misquote others, done it to me. How fun.:D

or any other assumption you are making concerning my political leanings..
I make no assumptions. You hold close to the vest, meander like an omeba and sooner or later you're for something you were against.

yup tea baggers are pure whores.

and democrats.

Alright, let's get you back on your train of thought. No repeal doesn't equate to no activity. If it's not good enough for you I'll lend the Stradivarius.

Yeah, I know if it ain't good enough for dag, it ain't no good. But the exact aspect is as silly as the so called level playing field. My guess is you've given up when you can't tell the difference between a lawmaker that introduces a bill and the lawmaker that votes nay. Black and white are twins if we just ignore the fact they're not.

ohh and can we be honest for just a moment?
it's really not left or right that has made a difference in passing MMJ laws.
the confusion of causation/correlation is a common one.
more realistically the true difference is the voter initiative process.
when left solely to the people compassion tends to win the day.
it's purely conjecture but id be willing to wager if those red states had a voter initiative process MMJ would be passing in those states as well.
